V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV61
Formats with ½ horizontal chroma resolution, also known as YUV 4:2:2.
One luminance and one chrominance plane with alternating chroma samples
as opposed to ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_YVU420``


Description
===========

These are two-plane versions of the YUV 4:2:2 format. The three
components are separated into two sub-images or planes. The Y plane is
first. The Y plane has one byte per pixel. For ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV16``, a
combined CbCr plane immediately follows the Y plane in memory. The CbCr
plane is the same width and height, in bytes, as the Y plane (and of the
image). Each CbCr pair belongs to two pixels. For example,
Cb\ :sub:`0`/Cr\ :sub:`0` belongs to Y'\ :sub:`00`, Y'\ :sub:`01`.
``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV61`` is the same except the Cb and Cr bytes are
swapped, the CrCb plane starts with a Cr byte.

If the Y plane has pad bytes after each row, then the CbCr plane has as
many pad bytes after its rows.

**Byte Order.**
Each cell is one byte.
